Nyesom Wike, the governor of rivers state, has narrated what happened at former senate president Bukola saraki’s residence after he nominated Peter Obi, the labor party’s presidential candidate, as running mate to former vice president and flagbearer Atiku Abubakar the run-up to the 2019 general elections.
He opened up on this while reacting to reports that he worked against Obi in the February 25 presidential election.
Speaking during a media chat with selected journalists in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, Wike also said: “I never told Rivers state people to vote for a candidate, I told them to vote for the unity of Nigeria. I take exception to Peter Obi’s comment that I came out against him. People are not being sincere, people are not being appreciative”.
